TEMPORARY APPOINTMENT PROTOCOL:

The physician and staff are pending scheduling of the Covid-19 vaccination by the Fairfax County Health Department.
Once everyone at Tysons Pain Center is found to be safely eligible and vaccinated,
we will implement new appointment protocol for in-person appointments and procedures.
In-person examinations and procedures will remain suspended,
until further notice.
We will continue to report to our office on a very limited schedule, for Telehealth treatment & remote services
for current patients.
When we re-open and resume regular office operations,
appointment and safety protocol will be strictly adjusted for the health & safety during this health crisis.
Patients must adhere to all new appointment safety guidelines in order to have an appointment.
